While introducing the artiste to the audience, Dr Sanjeev Uppal said Dya Singh is acknowledged as the world's most significant singer/musician of the mystical musical tradition.

Dya Singh learnt the art of spiritual singing at the age of five, from his father,who too was a renowned spiritual singer.

Principal Dr Daljit Singh, present on the occasion,said that the medical profession has a high-stress quotient as doctors have long and gruelling working hours. It is important for them to break away from the hectic routine and find ways to de-stress.

Spiritual music is more a medium of education and worship than merely a source of entertainment, said Dya Singh. A true spiritual music touches everyone's spirit by uplifting peace of mind, harmonious living and most importantly, the internal happiness and self- contentment. Listening to such concerts provides emotional support to the audience and help them to make better human beings.
